Katana's Soultaker sword, along with its non-powered twin, was forged in the 14th century by Muramasa, whose swords were said to be cursed and make those who were evil commit evil acts. It sometimes takes the souls of those it kills, storing them inside the sword, where they can engage in limited communication with whoever wields it. These souls can be reincarnated by the means of a sacred ritual, under which they serve their summoner, even if it is against their will.

Admittedly, the whole "make those who are evil commit evil acts" thing does sound pretty redundant.

I was wondering how Batman would get back to the cave without Katana noticing that they're headed toward Wayne Manor. Then we saw the tunnels and I'm thinking... How did Bruce manage to get all that made?

Thinking about it further, I suppose it could have been an old network of tunnels that he outfitted with lights. And maybe he has some sort of mechanism to shut everything down if the tunnels are ever discovered.

When you look at the vast majority of Bat Caves in the comics, movies, tv shows, cartoons, it's probably best not to think about tunnels etc etc.

Just accept that Bruce Wayne/Batman does it and save the headaches

Wasn't there Wayne family involvement with helping slaves along the underground railway in during the Civil War?

Yeah, it's unlikely they would've supported slave labor. Anyway, the first such tunnels in New York City were built at the start of the 20th century. I'm not sure about the construction methods used, but it's possible the technology didn't exist before then.

A construction project that massive could not be hidden, especially considering that one end comes out in the city itself and connects directly to the highway system.
